Abbas-Mustan known for lifting Hollywood films, this time lifted CONSENTING ADULTS(1992) which is too advanced for our Indian audiences who rejected Sauda(1995) and Karobaar(2000) too. The film starts off as a normal romance film but when Akshay enters things get interesting till the interval however the forced comedy of Johny Lever does get irritating. The twist at the interval is good and also the second half but things start getting predictable and the manner in which Bobby tries to settle things looks contrived, the climax too is heckeyened.

Direction by AM is quite good but not one of their best Music by Anu Malik is decent, songs are tuneful, Mehbooba was Adnan Sami's debut as a singer for films, other songs are good

Akshay Kumar did well in his 3rd negative role after Khiladi 420 and Aflatoon where he had a dual role, Bobby Deol too does his part well, Kareena Kapoor is okay, Bipasha Basu in her debut with a dubbed voice is decent Sharat Saxena is okay, Dalip Tahil irritates, Johny Lever and gang irritate more then amuse, rest are okay
